Looking for an affordable and flavourful lunch in Downtown Vancouver? Kosoo on Robson Street offers hot stone bowl lunch sets priced under $20 and packed with good portions and flavour.
Options include LA Galbi, Pork Galbi, Spicy or Soy Marinated Anago, Soy Marinated Crab, Clam or Veggie – each served with an array of nine side dishes such as garlic stems, kimchi, fish cakes, and quail eggs. A warm, comforting soup—like their egg soup—completes the meal.
I tried the Marinated Pork Galbi, which was tender with a smoky finish, and the Spicy Marinated Anago, which delivered a nice kick. The rice bowl is presented with broccoli, pumpkin, lotus root, and dates, adding texture and balance to every bite.
From the regular menu, the ox bone soup is my favourite, with tender beef brisket in a light, savoury broth.
Kosoo’s lunch sets are a great option for a hearty and budget-friendly meal. They are located at 1128 Robson St, Vancouver, BC.
